Many. Producing venison and other meats, competing in sporting events, art, and investment to name a few.
Guns cannot produce venison. Deers do that. I will give you competing in sporting events even though thats not really a use.There is no use for gun sporting events other than being a better killer. Same thing with investment. You cant always use worth. Its just an imaginary object based on the value a particular person sees in it.
Here you go...not a shot fired...and a life saved....two lives actually since this thug wasn't shot....
Woman Scares off Assailant With Stick. Just Kidding, it was a gun.
Just before 7pm on Wednesday night, a 29 year-old woman had gathered up her dog and headed outside to… well, to let her dog do what dogs do.
Upon her first step outside her Minot, North Dakota home, she was hit solidly in the face with a blunt object, knocking her backward down the stairs and into her home.
Her assailant followed her into her home and started to approach her, but the woman had made it to a cabinet where she retrieved a handgun to protect herself and her home.
When confronted with the firearm, the violent intruder and would-be robber/rapist/murderer fled the scene.
The smart, independent, gun-owning woman did not require medical attention, most likely due to the fact that she was able to pull a weapon on her assailant to end the attack.
Threat of harm.
No one shot....so you whole premise is a lie.......a gun saves lives all the time without killing anyone....
As I keep saying, the purpose of a gun is to preserve the life of the user....and most of the time it never has to even be fired.....
